Iceland's Stock Indices At Important Inflection Points

OMXIPI

I am closely watching if the OMX Iceland All-Share Price Index (OMXIPI) is in the process of reversing its long-term trend from down to up. If so, holding the 2.015 level and rising above the purple smoothing line in the next few days is important in my opinion.

OMXI15

If the OMX Iceland 15 Index (OMXI15) is turning its long-term direction to the upside, it needs to stay above the 2.270 level.

Stock Price of Marel

Marel is the second-largest company in the Icelandic stock market in terms of market capitalization. As a member of both indices, its stock price weighs heavily on the performance of OMXIPI and OMXI15. On Friday, Marel´s stock price gapped up on positive news. It would be a very promising signal for the general market if the price manages to push convincingly through the 517 ISK per share level, whether filling the gap underneath first or not.
